is there research specifically aimed at the diff.s between what is
produced by "wood" being burned and "leaves" being burned? Didn't know if
one was more hazardous than the other etc. or if anyone had ever compared
the two. It would need to be pretty general I guess as I have no specific
representative of either "plant matter" in mind. Sorry if it doesn't fall
neatly under as a science. A lot of places ban open leaf burning
but allow use of woodstoves and fireplaces...... any info or guidance to
info would be greatly appreciated - thank you
